Direct message the job poster from Lieef
Lieef is a next-generation private markets investment platform, rooted in the elite, small-team discipline of Goldman Sachs’ principal investing strategies — rigorous, opportunistic, and unafraid of complexity. We blend the durability of infrastructure with the agility of private equity, creating and executing deals from scratch in energy, water, waste, and fuels — multi-trillion-dollar global markets that form the essential systems powering and sustaining the economy for the next 50 years.
This is a lean, highly selective environment — every hire is central to our growth
What You’ll Do
Lead deals end-to-end: sourcing, diligence, execution, and post-close value creation.
Work directly with the founder — no bureaucracy, real responsibility.
Operate where others can’t or won’t, turning overlooked markets into advantage.
What We’re Looking For
Builders with an ownership mindset.
High-conviction operators who thrive in ambiguity.
Exceptional analytical ability across corporate and project finance.
Self-directed executors who move fast and own outcomes.
What We’re Not Looking For
Consensus-seekers, prestige-chasers, or those treating this as a short stop to gain experience before moving on.
People viewing this purely through a traditional PE lens — expecting rigid playbooks or narrow scope.
Those unwilling to take full ownership — and be recognized for — the results they deliver. Here, your work will always be visible and valued.
How You’ll Be Rewarded
Competitive base salary for stability.
Significant upside via cash bonuses, carry, and potential participation in management company economics — all tied directly to value you create.
No cap on upside.
Why Join Lieef
Here, you’re not just working in a business — you’re helping build it. If you want your fingerprints on deals that last, and have the conviction, creativity, and discipline to match, we should talk.
